Recordist's notes
Into the Gyumri station, rain falling. A train is coming from Erevan and is going to Batumi (Georgia) and after, the Gyumri-Erevan train is leaving. Into the Gyumri station, announcements are loud, and the time is very-very long ! Everything is slow. It's a forbidden sound. The station master went 4 times to see me and was aggressive. At the end, I had to leave.
